I've been around for a long time but have been MIA the past couple years. I've still been playing with knives, machetes, and axes just in other venues. Now I have all my technical issues resolved and have a computer out here where I build, work on, and make knives.
Everything is done by me, here in my shop, by hand. I make the knives, the sheaths (kydex and leather), the fire steels, the sharpening rods, and I even make all of the Custom Lanyard beads.
12 years in and I'm still a noob with tons of learning to do. I do turn out some useful and capable knives though and hopefully I can generate a little income to buy more supplies and practice, practice, practice.....
I'll list one per day to keep it simple for all of us, especially me.
These are working knives and not show pieces. Prices will reflect that.
First up:
Blade-
1095 Steel
Vegetable oil quench
Tempered at 400* for 2 hours. Then air cooled. Tempered again at 400* for two more hours..
Overall: 9-3/4"
Blade Edge: 4-1/4"
Handles: Orange G10, White G10 Liners, White G10 Pins, White G10 lanyard hole.
Lanyard: Micro paracord with matching White and Orange G10 Custom Bead and stainless spacer.
Sheath-
Hale Storm Custom Kydex Sheath
White Eyelets
Stainless Steel hardware
Custom offset Drop loop made from PVC coated nylon strap - Waterproof, White offset (full disclosure - the back of the white kydex is camo pink since it's the only piece of white kydex I had left in the shop, nad the nylon loop has a few scuffs that I'm hesitant to try and remove)
Custom Fire steel and Ceramic Sharpening Rod made from Axis Antler from a buck I killed many years ago.
Marine grade bungee cords, nylon spacers, and Black Oxide stainless steel screws.
Micro paracord with matching White and Orange G10 Custom Bead
CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY INCLUDED.
$250.00 $200.00 $150.00 $125.00 TYD Priority Mail ALL IN with tracking and insurance.
PayPal or Zelle
First "I'll take it" followed by prompt payment gets it.
Willing to TRADE for ESEE Junglas or mid -tech folders, singles or multiples. Prefer boxes and papers so I can recoup some cash but will take certain users I'd keep for my own EDC.
Thanks for looking - Ronnie Hale "Hale Storm".
